  I try to pin my blog to one of my Pinterest boards. The Pinterest board management screen appears, I select a board and a descriptiong but the pinning does not complete. I looked under Support. It appears I have completed the addition of the “share this” and selected widgets. The rest of the icons work. Not sure why Pinterest isn’t. Do I need to do an extra step? Thank you!

  Do you also encounter this issue in a different browser? for example Firefox or Google Chrome?

  Did it work for you in Firefox?

  To pin one of your posts, Pinterest needs to have an image to pull from your site. Can you let me know if you’re only coming across this problem on posts that don’t have any images?

  For example, I wasn’t able to pin your “Medical Insurance 101” post, but was able to pin “A Summer Treat – Emerald Pluot Jam.”
